Man: Ok, so, there's absolutely no room for my suitcases in this car, the trunk has just enough room for a small woman's purse, there's no back seats and the engine takes up half the length of the car.. oh and the phone only works when I'm standing outside the car.
Man continues: "So if you could send a taxi to pick me up, that would be terrific. No, I guess I didn't need to tell you all of that, but this car phone is pretty neat, don't you think? Yes. I'll be waiting at the curb, I'm standing there now!"
